Damn is this a fine cd, the incorporation of hard guitars into the music was a great evolution, and provided a lot more abrasive and broken (sorry, had to say it) feel to the disc. TVT was repulsed by it, and Trent had a falling out with them. Can you guess what "Happiness in Slavery" was about? Music: Decisively the best of "early" NIN, still experimenting with music styles, Reznor hits home to his fans with a great mix of tracks. Cover Design: The digipack design for this disc, superb. The art, even though not minimalist, is extremely well done and fits the theme of the cd. Great job. Collectability: Only 8 songs, but damn are they good. You have to buy this. Rarity: Still relatively ease to get access to, but don't push your luck, you never know. MUSIC 9/10 COVER 4.5/5 COLLECT 4.5/5 RARITY 5/10 OVERALL 9 How do we rate these?
